AUCD’s Statement on the HHS Announcement: “This Jeopardizes the Health and Safety of People with Disabilities"
The Association of University Centers on Disabilities is deeply concerned about the Administration’s changes to the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS). The changes include mass staffing reductions and reorganization of many sub-agencies in the name of reducing duplicity and increasing efficiency. These actions will eliminate expertise and negatively impact people with disabilities and their families.
